Hi,

Does anyone know the going rate for supercar hire for weddings? I've been asked if I will do one in September, I'm not sure I really want to give up a day of my life for that, but if the rates are generally good then I might think about it.

Cheers

MS

Seen them for Ferrari 360, to pick groom up and deliver to church and hang round untill end of service for pics with car is £395 plus.

30 minute birthday rides £150

Gets you thinking for that sort of money.

£395 for a few hours hanging around a church reading the paper, where do I sign up?

GI Jnr used to do this with his 360 Spi, Murci and Sagaris.

I think to do it officially you must be a licensed 'taxi carrier' - so anything you arrange must be agreed as a favour of sorts...

yes
Hire and Reward insurance and a licence from the council... But it does mean that you also could go and take drunken boozers home at 3am on a Sunday morning. hehe

To take someone to the church and then the Best Man to the reception (as normally the bride and groom have their bridal car) I'd be asking around £400 squids for a 360.

I do weddings in my ferrari and charge a £300 for a few hours. Easy money and enjoy the ride out in the car. The brides love the ferrari.

i thought i'd do it for a favour, tbh a 340r for weddings is not a great idea, no roof, windows or doors. but i fancy a laughrofl
